For me 1980 Xenon (Bally) wins it by a month over 1980 Asteroid Annie and the Aliens (Gottlieb).
 Soon though it'll be 1979 Genie (Gottlieb)

That's awesome Nick. If that technically qualifies as a pin then I think you will likely be the member with the oldest (that's gotta be hard to beat). Made in Batman's plant too - cool as  ^^^
I enjoy Porsche, Gibson LPs, Bally-Williams & learning about pinball maintenance & restoration.

Daniel might have something older.
If you don't remember the 70s then you were on drugs.
If you remember playing pinball in the 70s you were having a good time.
If you don't remember anything,  then read about it here,

I'm probably going to get my mouth washed out with soap for this but I really want to  try running a set of late 70's gtb 3" flippers on Big Casino to see if I can get a little more action out of it.....it's a good challenging game and everything but it's really hard to get it moving beyond a certain relaxed pace.
